2012 was an incredible year for all of us at ProProfs. One of the biggest milestones achieved in the past year was the launch of Training Maker, an online training software for certification courses. We are also very excited with the launch of our online Survey Maker in the last quarter of the year and the launch of ProProfs Store – an online payment gateway where you can sell online courses.
Besides, new product launches we also streamlined and upgraded our existing products: Quiz Maker – a powerful online assessment software, Poll Maker – a web-based poll software, Flashcards Maker – an online flashcards software.
We have big plans for 2013 and we are geared up for a challenging but highly exciting year ahead. We thank all our users for helping us make our products better with their excellent suggestions and would like to share the top achievements of 2012 and the upcoming highlight of 2013.
Top Achievements of 2012
Speed & Reliability
One of the areas of our focus has been to ensure that the site uptime remains closes to 100%. To improve the performance of our quiz product we switched to AJAX and added more servers which makes for faster response and load time. We also introduced video encoding technology which allows you to seamlessly upload videos, in any format, and still get awesome video playback across all kinds of devices. .
